Hi all, I have 1 WD  TV Live set up with a 500 GB wd USB passport drive loaded with files attached, (Call it WD1). I have another WD Live (WD2) in another room,on the same network. Is there a way to get WD 2 to access the files on the Hard Drive attached to WD1? this would be really useful.

Thanks for any advice:smileyindifferent:

Yes, as long as you enable SHARING on "WD1," you can access the drive via the "NETWORK SHARES" function of WD2.
